I'm sure the fish cleaner can help you out.

Try saving and reloading. Make sure you miners have mining enabled (immigrant miners may be called 'miner' but not have the labor turned on). Remove and re-designate. Make sure they aren't assigned to a burrow. Make sure they aren't on break/ doing something else like a workshop task, eating, drinking, etc. Make sure they aren't wounded or asleep. Try setting random dwarves to mining to see if just your current miners are messed up. Have them do another job (like building something) to 'kickstart' their path finding.

(s), pick a squad, (l), select a creature

You can't, designate a stockpile for the item or mark it to be dumped and designate a dump zone with (i), (enter), (g), (esc) or something like that. If you want a military dwarf to pickup equipment, get an arsenal dwarf (if you have over 20 dwarves), give him/her an office, go to the (m)ilitary screen and go to (e)quip, then you can set individual equipment from there. Don't use uniforms, they're bugged, apparently dwarves refuse to ever take them off (even more so than dwarves refusing to drop weapons- don't make training weapons!).

You may have stairs going down underground, but do those stairs connect to up or up/down stairs on the lower level?

If you are playing .31 you can just designate a channel ( d > h ), which will create a ramp between the ground level and the level below to get you started.
